I’ve got similar challenges for my boys schools. I didn’t realise but the schools accept a letter produced by your solicitor - my EA told me about it. Might be worth getting them to draft something? Apparently it needs to be sent with your MoS as proof of your offer being accepted. Not sure if it applies in all schools but it does for where we are in Yorkshire xMonsternextdoor said:
Doubtful, I need them to pull their fingers out as I need to get my girls into school, One has ASD and is struggling with it. But I can't get them into school without a council tax bill.WorriedKirkels said:
I would be raging too….fingers crossed Monday brings good news 🤞 xMonsternextdoor said:@goodwithsaving well done ! Its about time something went right
Extremely peeved atm paid my deposit and heard - Nothing - Nada - Niet - Total radio silence.
They are waiting on one document to be able to give us a date, even a provisional one.
Raging.
I can't get my husband into accomodation here until he has proof of ownership.
Im being chased to hand back this house as there is a shortage,I've boxes up the bloody walls and it seems like i'm losing the will.0 -
Yep. My solicitor is helpfully on holiday until next week... sales progressor has said they will chase too. I just don't know why on earth it would have to take so long!Cookie211 said:
Oh no have u chased your solicitor and EAgreensalad said:7 weeks since offer accepted and still no draft contract pack arrived. Hassling everyone I can but it's soooo frustrating.0 -
Just said they will chase it. If I hear back that it's the vendors not sending it to their solicitor I will have to query why. However it could just be their solicitor being slow. So frustrating.WorriedKirkels said:
What has the EA said? It sounds like the vendor might be wasting time for some reason?greensalad said:7 weeks since offer accepted and still no draft contract pack arrived. Hassling everyone I can but it's soooo frustrating.0 -
@WorriedKirkels
Im buying in Liverpool.
The kids could go and live with my folks until we get the house but with the ASD I know she wont cope.
I am waiting on windows to be fitted, house needs to be ripped out and scrubbed etc and a 200 mile one way trip as well.0 -
I didn’t know I’d need proof for schools!
I need to find two high school places (one son has autism and adhd) and the two year six places too

I don’t think all schools require it but I need to move my son in his final year and ensure his place is ready before we’ve moved. There are a number of factors with my son which mean we need confirmation pre move; seems to be one challenge after another at the moment! 😠 xDeletedUser said:I didn’t know I’d need proof for schools!

This is why we have bought in this area, The local school has a special provision for kids like this and they do an enhanced introduction to the high school.DeletedUser said:
